Vegetation remains one of the leading causes of outages on North American transmission and distribution networks, and across much of the West it is a wildfire risk too. Yet most programs still trim on fixed cycles and patrol only part of the network at a time.
The CEATI Transmission & Distribution Conference 2026 takes place November 16-20 at the Hyatt Regency Denver, in Denver, Colorado, under the theme "Preparing You for the Power Delivery System of the Future." Vegetation management and right-of-way resiliency has its own track, and that is the conversation we are coming for.
Showcasing Treeline at Booth 323
You will find us at Booth 323, in the northwest corner of the exhibit hall, overlooking the seating area. There we will be showcasing Treeline, our AI-powered, satellite-based vegetation management platform for utilities.
With Treeline, utilities can:
- Monitor every mile, every cycle: track vegetation along transmission and distribution lines from satellite, including remote spans that are slow or costly to patrol
- Find hazard trees early: identify encroachments and trees that could fall into the line before they cause an outage or an ignition
- Trim by risk, not by calendar: use span-level risk scoring to send crews where growth and clearance justify the work
- Support wildfire mitigation: focus resources on the highest-risk areas and keep a clear record of clearance in high fire-threat districts
- Reduce inspection costs: cut the number of routine patrols and site visits needed to understand network conditions
- Back decisions with evidence: give regulators, auditors and internal teams map-based, dated records of conditions and work completed
Built for vegetation and asset management teams
Vegetation managers use Treeline to plan cycles and contracts around actual conditions on the ground. Reliability and asset teams use it to see where vegetation drives outage risk across the network. Wildfire and planning teams use it to put spend where exposure is highest. The result is a vegetation program that is targeted, measurable and easier to justify.
Catch Nick Ferguson’s Talk
On Wednesday, November 18, at 2:15 PM, our Chief Evangelist Nick Ferguson will present “Risk Doesn’t Wait for the Cycle: Continuous, Network-Wide Intelligence for Vegetation, Wildfire and Storm Risk” in Session C5: Vegetation Management & Right-of-Way Resiliency. Vegetation, wildfire and storm risk builds up between trim cycles and patrols, not on a schedule. Nick will share how satellite data and AI give utilities a continuous view of that risk across their entire network, and how Twinspector, LiveEO’s own satellite constellation, will add high-resolution 3D observation of tree heights and clearance.
Let's Connect in Denver!
Find us at Booth 323 in the exhibit hall.
Representing LiveEO at the event will be:
- Nick Ferguson, Chief Evangelist
- Bart Small, Partner and Business Development Lead, Americas
